Ashley M GjøvikFollowing the great profile about my whistleblower disclosures in Télérama last month, another #Apple #whistleblower, Thomas Le Bonniec (who helped expose Apple's secret recordings of the public via #Siri), published a wonderful follow-on article about how both of our disclosures show indisputable contradictions in Apple's supposed stance on data protection and #privacy.
